                                                    You are a member of a teeming horde — one small part of a sprawling organism. Just as you are part of the swarm, the swarm is part of a larger ecosystem, a never-ending cycle of life, death
                                                
                                            
                                                
                                                     Golgari, no fear of death or taboo about the dead, just a fierce affirmation of the cycle.
